Default Making a transporter follow a network node

Hi all,

I am a student currently doing my final year project, and one of the problems that I have encountered is that even when I have connected network nodes to both the transporter and the rack, they ignore the rack completely and proceed to go through the rack to acquire the desired item.

How can I make it so that the transporter will adhere to the desired network node travel network and not go through the rack?

PS: Attached is an example of the problem that I am facing.

Thank you,
Vin Low

Thanks for the model.

That was exactly what I was looking for.

By the way, do you know how I can convert Flexsim 6 models so that Flexsim 5 is able to view it too?

Thank you,
Vin Low
